[quote=Anonymous]You can easily/safely ask whether the job typically requires overtime (or staying after hours or what the hours typically are, etc.). If they ask, in return, "would that be a problem for you" you can safely say "it would be difficult for me to stay late without advance notice." (you're not necessarily saying that you WOULD work late) You can also ask "how would you describe the office culture?" and other questions that would get the prospective employer talking about the work environment. Also, if you want to get a sense about vacation leave, you can ask "are the times of the year when the office is particularly busy, or does the workload remain fairly steady/constant?" That might help you judge things too - if it's crazy busy right when you normally go on vacation or during the holidays when you would want/need to take leave...[/quote]
